Condition Report
Overall fair to good condition, with light surface scratches and minor nicks from wear to all pieces.
To the Victorian ring, the top facet edges to the sapphire are fairly abraded with slightly rounded crown facets, with nibbles to the girdles of the diamonds and one with a small chip, the settings may need checking. With full legible hallmarks and stamped to the inner shank 5190, ring size O 1/2.
The second has some minor nibbles to the sapphire table facet, the sapphire has an uneven colour saturation and is a light blue, an inclusion can just be seen with the naked eye below the crown/table facet. The diamonds are bright and lively for their size. A solder join is visible to the back of the ring. Ring size H 1/2.
The third ring shows abrasion to all the sapphire facet edges and all the claws are rubbed. Ring size L.
